The Man

I just can’t wait until this guy is our president. He will be so much better than GWB, our Greatest Current President.

Obama v Clinton

In 2 years as a Senator, Obama authored 152 bills - Hillary: 20 in 6 years

“An impressive record, for someone who supposedly has no record according to some who would prefer that this comparison not be made public.

He’s not just a talker.
He’s a doer.”

Falwell

OK I stole this idea from Lauren, but it’s a good one. We should really try to remember him for who he really was, rather than believing the crap that’s been airing on Fox news. Here is a collection of quotes that should go down in history along with the fine collection of cells and energy that spent time together to form what we knew as Jerry Falwell:

“If Chief Justice Warren and his associates had known God’s word and had desired to do the Lord’s will, I am quite confident that the 1954 decision [Brown v. Board of Education] would never have been made…. The facilities should be separate. When God has drawn a line of distinction, we should not attempt to cross that line.”

“I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People For the American Way, all of them who have tried to secularize America. I point the finger in their face and say ‘you helped this happen.’”[Concerning the events of 9/11]

“AIDS is the wrath of a just God against homosexuals.”

“Christians, like slaves and soldiers, ask no questions”

“AIDS is not just God’s punishment for homosexuals; it is God’s punishment for the society that tolerates homosexuals”

“AIDS is not just God’s punishment for homosexuals; it is God’s punishment for the society that tolerates homosexuals”

Now that’s what I call honorable.

Blue Tsunami

First off, I’m glad to see that former NFL quarterback Heath Shuler is now my congressman. I think he should be much more responsive than the Weekend At Bernie’s-ish Charles Taylor. Plus, Heath can throw a football.

Secondly, a major congratulations to my brother, who will now be known as Judge Chatham. His pal Mike Snipes won as well. I am now 2 for 2 in creating websites for elected officials who win their races. Next?

Thirdly, if you are having problems installing Internet Explorer 7 (or any Windows updates) because of the Windows Genuine Advantage malware that Microsoft has forced upon us, then why not Bypass and Crack Internet Explorer 7 Genuine Windows Validation in style?

Lastly, I updated my portfolio just now. There are a few more sites that will be added in the near future.

Vote!

Today is the last day to register to vote in the November 7 elections, for you folks living in North Carolina.

I was pleased to find out that it is now possible to check your voting eligibility at the North Carolina State Board of Elections web site, where you can find out where you are supposed to go to vote, and even see pictures of the facility. Something I’ve had problems with during past elections is that they keep changing where I am supposed to go. I’ll show up one place, then learn I have to go somewhere else.

That should be fixed now with the online information available.

I have always believed that if you don’t vote, you don’t have the luxury of complaining about problems with the government. I know I’ll be voting for change this year, intending to oust the antiquated Charles Taylor in favor of Heath Shuler. And according to a poll released yesterday, Shuler is leading!

Irony, Part II

This was too good to pass up. Nevermind that last week was national Banned Books Week.

“Fahrenheit 451″ is a science fiction piece that poses a warning to society about the preservation and passing on of knowledge as well as asks the question about whether the government should do the thinking for the people, Hines stated in an e-mail to The Courier. Other themes include conformity vs. individuality, freedom of speech and the consequences of losing it, the importance of remembering and understanding history and technology as help to humans and as hindrances to humans, Hines stated in the e-mail.

But some parents got upset:

“It’s just all kinds of filth,” said Alton Verm, adding that he had not read “Fahrenheit 451.” “The words don’t need to be brought out in class. I want to get the book taken out of the class.”
He looked through the book and found the following things wrong with the book: discussion of being drunk, smoking cigarettes, violence, “dirty talk,” references to the Bible and using God’s name in vain. He said the book’s material goes against their religious beliefs.
